Before continuing, know that I'm 14. Destiny should not even be 16's. There are no bad language, no horror scenes, actually the only reason it is, is because of the blood. I mean Bungie is so convinced not to add graphic content, when you get a headshot, their head just disappears. That was disappointing. But I wish it did deserve the rating 16+. However, I agree with parts of what you are saying. Some kids playing this obviously should not be. I despise getting into a lobby only to hear some 8 year old cursing at the top of his squeaky voice into his mic for no apparent reason. Some of your points are generally unrealistic. You would have to be very traumatised or incredibly unable to handle fiction to be scared of anything in the game. Destiny of all games. Most of the underaged part of the destiny community are not mature or intelligent enough to play this. Some are though. What we should be listing is the incompetence of some parents. If your kid is not mature, don't buy the game. Simple at that. In the very least, do not bunch up people in age groups. Do not associate me with those whiny turds.

  • You're more articulate than a good chunk of my age demographic (25-35). I'd be interested to see where you end up in 20 years time. That being said: I certainly don't discriminate against age. It's more about attitude But I will agree that a good chunk of younger players mannerisms do need adjustment. Nothing is more annoying to me than trying to do hardmode content to hear a young person holding sidebar conversations and ignoring the rest of the group's desire for progression. I don't believe that issue of consideration is reserved to only kids. Older people will have the same lack of consideration, it's just heightened when the younger audience does it because the context of their discussions aren't something we encounter in our daily lives as adults (it's much harder for us to relate). I 100% agree that the game itself is structured in a way that is entirely kid friendly. To believe that this game would be harmful to a younger audience is completely naive. I recall when I was your age, and I had been exposed to far harsher things. If anything, there's very few things that kids SHOULDN'T be exposed to, so that they're experienced enough to rationalize difficult situations (and act appropriately) when they're older.

  • I wish it was mature though. Think, we could have had assassinations
